Wow, & I thought you had it in for Ducati?

[Supervox]

Ducati - Italian & Red

Ferrari (or Fiat to give them their proper name) - Italian & Red

Anyone spot a pattern emerging yet ?

You literally beat me to it by seconds.

I dunno, desirable Italian?

[pegasus]

very good

It's only funny 'cos it's true.

I am of course shocked at Supertonsils obvious dislike of all things Italian,(red!) Very funny though.

What I find extremely poor though is the celebrations made by both McClaren and Ferrari mechanics when observing a rival suffer misfortune. Is F1 so void of sportsmanship these days? I hope I never see such from Moto GP teams.

But then again, what do I know?

How nice of you to drop by - long time no 'see' "little one" !!

In all seriousness though, I do wonder why it is that Ducati & Ferrari seem to have this 'must-win-at-all-costs-no-matter-what-the-rules' ethos - is it an Italian trait ?
I don't actually think it is - because it doesn't appear to be shared by the (Italian) guys who actually drive the cars or ride the bikes - Rossi, Capirex, Dovi or any of the many Italian F1 drivers over the years.
